I had to edit file to make it start up at boot in 10.3.
See the article on ndiswrapper at http://en.opensuse.org/Ndiswrapper Specifically the part about... -------------------- Loading Ndiswrapper at Boot One method that can work is to edit your network script in /etc/init.d/network. Add in a line that says |modprobe ndiswrapper| before it gets to the actual networking script so that ndiswrapper is loaded prior to the script running. Note, this should not be required if you configure your wireless interface with YaST and enter 'ndiswrapper' in the 'module name' field. This should load the ndiswrapper kernel module at boot. [edit <http://en.opensuse.org/index.php?title=Ndiswrapper&action=edit§ion=16>] Loading Ndiswrapper at Boot (opensuse 10.3) In some cases (USB wlan?) configuring the wireless interface with YaST, does not load the ndiswrapper module automatically in opensuse 10.3. To get you wlan card to work at boot time, you have to edit your network script in /etc/init.d/network (as described above). Another method is to edit the config file /etc/sysconfig/kernel, by adding |ndiswrapper| into |MODULES_LOADED_ON_BOOT| section (e.g.: |MODULES_LOADED_ON_BOOT="ndiswrapper"|). ------------------ IIRC I edited /etc/init.d/network. Works great. I'm not sure why this is an issue in 10.3, but this worked for me. Jim F -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
